What is the dumpiest vacation town/resort you have ever been to?

Question

In Chicago, that would be Indiana Beach. Not only do they have this really obnoxious crow for a mascot, that is a blatant ripoff of the Maxwell Smart character in Get Smart(rest in peace, Don Adams),

But, the whole place has been falling apart for years. We've
always wondered where the people come from that go to the park.
They look all stinky and hard-up. We think they must come from little hamlets around the state.

The food is gross......the rollercoaster should be condemned

The"water park" is shut down with e coli outbreaks about three times a week. Last time we were there, we saw brown stuff coming out of the pipes, so maybe the sewer of monticello, indiana bleeds out into there somehow.

They have a tacky "Midway" that hasn't been updated since
the depression(1932).

Let me tell you about gatlinberg. We were
at this ripley believe it or not museum
(not making any of this stuff up), and two
hungarian midgets came up to our family and asked us if we wanted to see something amazing....thinking, what cana hungarian midget do to amaze me, and intrigued, I said, sure, show me something
amazing. He, and a lady he said was his wife, proceeded to take out a felt canvas,
with little colorful felt pieces, and placed
them upside down to form a picture.
Then, he turned it upside down, and,
it was simply another picture, like that lady that looks like a witch picture

Then we applauded. They came all the way from Hungary to do felt tricks at the
ripley museum in gatlinberg?
I didn't know what was sadder, the hungarian midgets, or our family shelling
out 40 bucks!

Yes, gatlinberg is a whole with a view,
sorta like a room with a view, but tackier.

Olive and Haley, great area for bad amusement parks...the redneck riv
oozes with them, with the same vermin
that I described at Indiana beach. Take a bunch of ugly, fat, rude kids and adults,
add cheap rides that shuld be condemned,
and garbage strown all over the place, and you have just about any "amusement park'
in the redneck riv...if anything, spring break
cleaned it up a bit!

All you see for miles in the "redneck riviera"
are tattoo parlors, beer joints, crab shacks,
tee-shirt stores seemingly everywhere, pick-ups, Harleys, and toothless hillbilly
chicks with three teeth and their boobs hanging out. They make the infield at a Nascar race look like a polo crowd.

Oh yeah..and every night you get miles
of rednecks tailgating and flashing their
narly boobs at each other.

The worst is Miracle Strip Amusement park

which is on a par with Indiana Beach

I'm SO glad to see our British friends across the pond are blessed with hellishly
tacky, flea-bit, clip-joint "amusement parks".
I have a link to the places our good British
friend is talking about. Notice how plug-ugly
the kids and adults are in the pictures, just like the american scuzballs and just as fat too!

Have a good laugh at look at the hellishly
awful "entertainment schedule",
"Wow mum, wow dad, there's Bob the builder! There's all my best friends from the telly! And they're doing a show especially for me"!
Sorry kid, they're only doing it cause they're getting paid for it. They want to rip off that suit and quaff some ale at the pub as soon as possible, believe me!"
The british must be hardy SOB's beacuse
this park is open, as you can see, through
November! Bob the builder must be freezing his **** off in november! LOL

Look at the awful bands that play at Butkins! Abba forever? Does the world
really need another abba cover band? Does
the world really need ABBA itself, for that matter?

And the wonderful theater possibilites!
The andrew lloyd webber-inspired
"Rent-a-ghost". Sure to please all Beefeating village idiots and factory
workers from Leeds to Manchester.

Answer 1

A butlins resort somehwere in wales (can't spell it) utterly revolting. The mattresses were like carboard, the roast chicken was more like burnt rat, the nightlife was a flea-ridden cinema with one screen, and their in-resort entertainment left a hell of a lot to desire.

I hate those little resorts like Butlins, I've been to three in my life (as a child) and they were all just hideous. I don't know why us Brits insist on going to them. The weather here is atrocious, and its double the price of actually going abroad to somewhere nice with nice weather and beaches that aren't covered in shingles! Crazy....

Answer 2

There are some real scumbucket places all over Florida. They usually give them some real nice sounding name like "Oasis Vista" or "Break Point" or some other beautiful beach referance. But it's a roach infested dump with stains on everything and most of the furniture is sticky.
